Okay, let's make this simple. This is one of those reboot/reimaginings that Hollywood is famous for. I personally do not care for them. Add to the fact that I like all three of the original films and consider THE ROAD WARRIOR to be in my permanent all time Top Ten list and you know I'm not watching this thing.
It reminds me of Zack Snyder's DAWN OF THE DEAD. Might have been a great flick...if you didn't call it that. This one seems to have gone the same way.
I hear he saves the equivalent of post apocalyptic Victoria's Secret models???
Really???
Now, I'm not sure if it's true, it's just what I heard.
My Max wouldn't waste his time. This was a man thrust into a situation. The world is on the verge and with one fell swoop, his world is shattered and he becomes a man fueled by vengeance. Even when that fire burns out he is still focused on just surviving a world he never asked to be a part of. He saves a group of people in one film and then a group of children in the next. It's about family. Max is all about protecting family.
Victoria's Secret Models???
Even if they aren't that, just saving the wives of the bad guy seems like a situation my Max would never even get near.
So, in the end, right or wrong, I see no reason to watch this.
I'm going to fire up The Road Warrior this weekend.
Such a good movie.

In the land of Sexploitation Cinema there is one individual that call truly call himself a historian.
Pete Chiarella a.k.a. 42nd Street Pete. No one knows more about 42nd Street in its heyday than Pete. Now it's time to share the love and head on over to Alternative Cinema to get your hands on some classic flicks for a bargain.

So, from time to time I try out new ROKU channels with my ROKU box. Recently, there was a new channel that just said Watch Horror Movies For Free. I'm a big fan of free and I know that most of these have commercial interruptions, but I'm used to commercials so it's like a blast from the past for me.
I signed up for the channel and spotted this movie right away. I had heard of it before, but never sought it out.
I should have watched sooner.

What do you mean Quicksilver's Dead? I assumed he wasn't dead and now everyone from actor and director on down say that he is dead.
I'm getting tired of this nonsense. First you kill off Ben Urich in the new Daredevil series and now, Quicksilver???
Really?
Quicksilver is one of those standard Marvel characters that has been around forever. Heck, at one time he was 25% of the Avengers.
And now they kill him???
I'm going to go with it being the Marvel Universe and he isn't really dead.
That means waiting for the next Avenger movie.
Grrrrr! He better not be dead
